How to win the jungle race as Viego against Udyr · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Viego's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Udyr.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Udyr out-classes you at the first buff — Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, and Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. Skip the level-1 crossing, full-clear away from them, and trade map pressure instead of health. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Danger — Avoid Udyr | Do not be seen on the second camp: Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. On top of that, Blazing Stampede's stun plus Wingborne Storm shred wins any straight fight, so they get there first. Pre-position toward your tier-two side and dodge the first stun engage. Refuse the level-2 skirmish and farm the opposite quadrant until your spike lands. |
| Level 3 Route | Respect Udyr | At level 3 this window belongs to Udyr: four stance points are online and their awakened trades hit their hardest window, and Blazing Stampede's stun-lock into awakened stance damage runs you down in a straight line. Pre-position toward your tier-two side and dodge the first stun engage. Give up the level-3 river fight and bank tempo on the opposite side of the map. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Respect Udyr — Path Opposite | Levels 4-5 still belong to Udyr in a straight fight — farm the opposite side, answer their ganks cross-map, and wait for your spike. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Respect Udyr's R | Udyr wins the breakpoint outright — awakened stance rotations on four points hit harder than most actual ultimates, and awakened Blazing Stampede chains stuns faster than your cooldowns recover. Break the chase with walls — his power is point-blank and he cannot force the fight, then trade objectives cross-map until your items land. |
| First Item Spike | Kraken Slayer Spike | Completing your core item triggers a massive physical damage and sustained fighting multiplier that completely overpowers traditional brawlers or isolated targets. Udyr's first item is where the awakened stance rotations stop being a heavy trade and start being a kill. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Viego Favoured — Wins Late | Udyr falls off relative to you — from two items on you win the raw stat check, even though he is an awakened-stance brawler with sustain, damage and a stun on a short timer. Drag the game long and force the 1v1s. |
Start your clear at the Raptors or Red Buff camp utilizing your Q passive double-strike to maximize early clear speed. Udyr clears extremely fast with stance swaps and shields himself through it, so he is rarely below full health.
